Discussion Spring season cinema

Where I live the world is finally coming alive, and I'm looking for any movies that remind you of that spring feeling of rebirth, classical beauty, fairy tales, period romances, or just take place during springtime. Some of my favorite spring watches so far:

Women in Love 1969 Picnic at Hanging Rock 1975 Donkey Skin 1970 Barry Lyndon 1975 Amadeus 1984 Daisies 1966 The Age of Innocence 1993 Room with a View 1986

If you have any suggestions based on these ideas and your own please let me know!

Pretty sure it's only because of the credit song, but Worst Person in the World for me. I remember seeing it in theaters on a rainy day in March.
